[Product Introduction] Shrink Leather (Shrunken Calf Leather)
When you think of BONAVENTURA, many people will think of "shrunk leather," which has an attractive smooth texture.
This time we will tell you about the appeal of the very popular "Shrink Leather"!
The shrink leather (shrunken calf leather) used is leather from Perlinger, a famous, long-established tannery that has been tanning (producing) leather in Germany since 1864.
Perlinger is not only known for its high quality leather, but also for being an environmentally conscious tannery, earning high praise from top brands around the world.
Characteristics of shrink leather
Shrink leather is characterized by its beautiful natural "grain" created by the shrinking process of chrome tanning.
Depending on the part, the grain can be large or deep, resulting in a variety of different expressions, and one of the charms is that you can enjoy the individuality of natural leather, where no two pieces are alike.
It is resistant to moisture and has a smooth texture when you first use it, so you can use it comfortably even in the summer.

About durability
Among the many types of leather, this one has a particularly soft and elastic texture.
Even minor scratches can be restored to fullness.
Shrink leather is scratch-resistant and water-resistant, making it perfect for everyday use!
Wide range of colors
Unlike cheap leathers that are finished with a thick layer of pigment, Perlinger's leather is finished with a time-consuming aniline dye finish and then has an additional process of applying a very thin layer of pigment, resulting in vivid color while retaining the leather's natural texture.
We use the finest leather to craft products that will retain their beautiful color for a long time without fading or fading.
Available in a wide range of colors to suit both everyday and business situations.
You're sure to find your favorite color.
Nano glass coating process
At BONAVENTURA, we apply a nano-glass coating (water-repellent treatment) developed in collaboration with Perlinger during the leather manufacturing process.
The glass coating is harmless to the human body and does not damage the texture of the leather, allowing the leather itself to repel moisture and resist dirt and stains, allowing you to enjoy the beauty of your leather for longer.
The coating effect can be restored by spraying the item with the separately sold nano glass coating spray every 3 to 4 months.
